I am really excited to share that will be teaching in
Hacking The Color Wheel, which is hosted by Kiala Givehand! It is split into 2 sessions and I will be teaching in Session 2

When you think about being a "creative rebel" what do you think about? I will be teaching and showing you different ways in which you can work with color, not feel restrictive and have fun.

We will look at how to use colors in a variety of ways including color wheels, mono-color studies, mixing color, different combinations of color and also think about how we use color to create mood and feeling, tell a story, and express ourselves.

Join the creative rebels as we journey together through lessons on bookbinding, color theory, techniques, mixed media spreads, and projects that will push the boundaries of color, art, and journaling.

You can sign up for the sessions now and take advantage of the Early Bird pricing for the Session 1 and 2 BUNDLE here. Session 1 starts June 11th and Early bird pricing ends May 15th. Come join us! You can find all the details here.

⠀

I hope you will join me and the other
amazing artists for all book making, art journaling, and color fun.

I shared some prompts for you to try previously on my blog, don't worry you can still check them outHERE!

This is my second year as a teacher on the BADASS Art Journal course and I am blessed to be working with another talented group of artists. Grow with us as you take this course. I believe that there is always room for growth, and there is never a cut off point, it is a lifelong thing. I love working with colour and texture, and allowing the stories come out from the page. Texture allows you to create some interesting effects

In my lesson I will be sharing with you techniques that allow you to play and use surfaces that you wouldn't normally use in your art journal in very different ways!

Sneak Peak of the class!

As you can also see I love creating faces, the characters each telling their own story....

Welcome, welcome, Day 29 of 29 Faces, we finally got here! This piece has been painted onto canvas which has been painted initially in a mixture of gold and other acrylic colors. I then found the final character in the 29 Faces series to come and tell their story.

Day 29

Of course you will have to sit down with a cup of something tasty with your feet up to really hear it all, but she promises tales of far off adventures and travels, perhaps I'll get her to tell me first then I can share with you:)I hope you have enjoyed the daily paintings, and it has encouraged you to take out your supplies and start a practice for your self. The sooner you start the quicker you will see the benefits.Stay bless and be a blessing, come back tomorrow for a roundup of all the images over the last few weeks.

I have so enjoyed creating the faces so far that I think I will continue in some form. I feel that each character that I have been creating has a story to tell, I am just the bridge that enables them to come out on the page.

Day 28 - Abigale

Abigale's story will unfold.....

Join me for tomorrows last image in the 29Faces challenge, and see who comes to tell their story!
